The original concept for Plex Meta Manager is [Plex Auto Collections](https://github.com/mza921/Plex-Auto-Collections), but this is rewritten from the ground up to be able to include a scheduler, metadata edits, multiple libraries, and logging. Plex Meta Manager is a Python 3 script that can be continuously run using YAML configuration files to update on a schedule the metadata of the movies, shows, and collections in your libraries as well as automatically build collections based on various methods all detailed in the wiki. Some collection examples that the script can automatically build and update daily include Plex Based Searches like actor, genre, or studio collections or Collections based on TMDb, IMDb, Trakt, TVDb, AniDB, or MyAnimeList lists and various other services.
Plex Meta Manager is an open source Python 3 project that has been designed to ease the creation and maintenance of metadata, collections, and playlists within a Plex Media Server. The script is designed to be run continuously and be able to update information based on sources outside your plex environment. Plex Meta Manager supports Movie/TV/Music libraries and Playlists.
The script can update many metadata fields for movies, shows, collections, seasons, and episodes and can act as a backup if your plex DB goes down. If the time is put into the metadata configuration file you can have a way to recreate your library and all its metadata changes with the click of a button.
## Getting Started
The script works with most Metadata agents including the New Plex Movie Agent, New Plex TV Agent, [Hama Anime Agent](https://github.com/ZeroQI/Hama.bundle), [MyAnimeList Anime Agent](https://github.com/Fribb/MyAnimeList.bundle), and [XBMC NFO Movie and TV Agents](https://github.com/gboudreau/XBMCnfoMoviesImporter.bundle).
1. Install Plex Meta Manager; this process is described [here](https://metamanager.wiki/en/latest/home/installation.html).
![Colletions1](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiki/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/collections1.png)
2. Once installed, you have to create a [Configuration File](https://metamanager.wiki/en/latest/config/configuration.html), which contains URLs and credentials and the like which are used to connect to services like Plex and TMDB.
![Colletions2](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiki/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/collections2.png)
3. After that you can start updating Metadata and building automatic Collections by creating a [Metadata File](https://metamanager.wiki/en/latest/metadata/metadata.html) for each Library you want to interact with.
## Getting Started
4. After that, explore the Wiki to see all the different Collection Builders that can be used to create collections.
## Walkthroughs
If you find steps 1-3 above daunting, there are some walkthroughs available that will take you through those three steps: getting Plex Meta Manager installed, creating a config file, and creating a couple collections to show how the process works.
1. The [Local Walkthrough](https://metamanager.wiki/en/latest/home/guides/local.html) covers installing the script natively [not in docker] on your local computer or a remote server.
2. The [Docker Walkthrough](https://metamanager.wiki/en/latest/home/guides/docker.html) covers the same thing, running the script via Docker.
3. The [unRAID Walkthrough](https://metamanager.wiki/en/latest/home/guides/unraid.html) gets you started configuring the script in UNRaid. It doesn't go through the same steps with regard to creating the config file and metadata file, so you may want to go through the [Docker Walkthrough](https://metamanager.wiki/en/latest/home/guides/docker.html) first on your computer to gain that understanding.
## Development & Nightly Builds
### Development
The [develop](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/tree/develop) branch has the most updated **documented** fixes and enhancements to Plex Meta Manager. This version is tested and documented to some degree, but it is still an active development branch, so there may be rough edges.
Switching to `develop`:
````{tab} if running in Docker
<br/>
Add ":develop" to the image name in your run command or configuration:
```
meisnate12/plex-meta-manager:develop
```
<br/>
````
````{tab} if running on the host:
In the directory where you cloned PMM:
```bash
git checkout develop
```
To switch back:
```bash
git checkout master
```
<br/>
````
1. Install Plex Meta Manager either by installing Python3 and following the [Local Walkthrough](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/wiki/Local-Walkthrough)
or by installing Docker and following the [Docker Walkthrough](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/wiki/Docker-Walkthrough) or the [unRAID Walkthrough](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/wiki/unRAID-Walkthrough).
2. Once installed, you have to create a [Configuration File](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/wiki/Configuration-File) filled with all your values to connect to the various services.
3. After that you can start updating Metadata and building automatic Collections by creating a [Metadata File](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/wiki/Metadata-and-Playlist-File) for each Library you want to interact with.
4. Explore the [Wiki](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/wiki) to see all the different Collection Builders that can be used to create collections.
If switching to the develop build, it is recommended to also use the [develop](https://metamanager.wiki/en/develop/) branch of the wiki, which documents any changes made from the Master build.
## Wiki
The [Wiki](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/wiki) details evey available option you have with Plex Meta Manager its Table of Contents is below.
### Nightly
There is also a [nightly](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/tree/nightly) build which will have the absolute latest version of the script, but it could easily break, there is no guarantee that it even works, and any new features will not be documented.
Switching to `nightly`:
````{tab} if running in Docker
<br/>
Add ":nightly" to the image name in your run command or configuration:
```
meisnate12/plex-meta-manager:nightly
```
<br/>
````
````{tab} if running on the host:
In the directory where you cloned PMM:
```bash
git checkout nightly
```
To switch back:
```bash
git checkout master
```
<br/>
````
As this build is subject to extreme change, there is no nightly branch of the wiki and all discussions relating to changes made in the nightly build will be held within the [Plex Meta Manager Discord Server](https://discord.gg/NfH6mGFuAB).
## Example Usage
Plex Meta Manager gives the user the power to curate a set of Collections to make discovering and organizing media easy. They can be built either using plex-based searches/filters, or by using popular builders such as TMDb, IMDb, Trakt, MDBList, MyAnimeList and many more.
Some example collections that can be created are:
* Trending/Popular (based on TMDb, IMDb, Trakt, etc.)
* Streaming Service (such as Netflix, Disney+, etc.)
* Networks
* Studios
* Genres
* Actors
* Decades
Below are some user-curated collections which have been created by Plex Meta Manager.
